Types of AA Meetings

Birthday: In AA, birthdays refer to the last day (or the day after) that a member used alcohol or drugs. Birthday anniversaries are celebrated as milestones to encourage sobriety.

Closed: In North Dakota, closed AA meetings are not available to the general public. Only members can attend, as well as individuals who recognize they have a drinking problem and are ready to seek help. The discussions are informal and center around addiction-related topics.

Daily Reflections: Daily Reflections is an AA text that compiles insight, experience, and encouragement from various members. Selected contents may be topics of discussions in AA meetings. Members can also adapt reflections into their daily activities.

Wheelchair Access: North Dakota AA centers provide non-ambulatory clients with wheelchair access. These features generally consist of exterior ramps, designated parking spots, and open layouts for full participation.
